Sync problem with Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac

Can someone help. I have synchronization problem with my contact in the Outlook for Mac using blackberry desktop software for mac. Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

  • Problems with blackberry desktop manager for Mac

    I just updated the software and during the sync it wants to erase all calendar entries and notes.  Has anyone else had this issue and can it be fixed

    There is a separate forum for the Mac desktop software. I'll ask a moderator to move this thread.

  • Is there a Blackberry Desktop Software for MAC OS 10.4.11? Or something equivalent? Help Please!

    Hello All,
    Is there a Blackberry Desktop Software for MAC OS 10.4.11?  Or something equivalent?
    I recently switched from a palm treo to blackberry but didn't anticipate syncing issues with my mac until now.  The current BB desktop software seems only compatible with MAC OS 10.5, so I'm in a difficult position.
    Please any suggestions are deeply welcomed!!
    Thank you.

    No, sorry, there is not.

  • Cannot sync - BB8900 with BB Desktop Manager for Mac

    After first downloading Desktop Manager, I was able to sync with my 8900 once.  Now, every time I connect the device (via USB), Desktop Manager opens, attempts to connect to the device, and fails.  Status of the device shows at 'not connected'.
    I've followed the sync services set up for Entourage and Mac. I've also uninstalled Desktop Manager and reinstalled, but it didn't resolve it.  I've disabled my password protection from the 8900 as well, and that hasn't worked.
    I used PocketMac before, and while there were some issues with data loss and overlap, it worked most of the time.  I have uninstalled PocketMac at this point.
    Thanks for the help.

    Hey Maarten08 and autoca,
    I would suggest doing the following:
    Uninstall BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac, restart the computer.
    Then perform the following:
    On the Mac computer, navigate to Macintosh HD >
    System > Library >
    Extensions.
    Locate the BlackBerryUSB.kext and
    BlackBerryUSBDev.kext files.
    Move these two files to the Trash.
    Empty the Trash.
    Restart the Mac computer.
    Then go to www.blackberry.com/desktop to re-download BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac.
    Install and then hook up the BlackBerry and make sure you have mass storage mode enabled.
    For information on how to enable mass storage mode: www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB13564
    Let me know if you run into any trouble.

  • Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac won't open

    I've downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac to begin synching my new Torch but when I try to launch the software, I get the following message.
    "The document “BlackBerry Desktop Software.mpkg” could not be opened. TextEdit cannot open files in the “Installer package” format."
    Has anyone encountered this and had any luck getting it to open?
    Any advice appreciated -- anxious to update my contacts and fully use my new phone!

    Hi choochoo2,
    Have you been able to try using a different USB port or to retry connecting after reinserting the BlackBerry battery? If so, try reinstalling the Desktop Software and retrying the connection.

    Hi,
    please could someone assist me in this.
    I have a mac running the latest Blackberry Desktop Software for Mac. And a Bold 9900 on 7.0 bundle 1465. 
    The Blackberry Desktop Software says new update available 7.0.0.1672. So i proceed to update the blackberry. It says installing and reboots. But it still has the old version, and the Blackberry Desktop Software still says new version available. (7.0.0.1672) So im going in a loop.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hey luckyBB,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    I noticed you listed your carrier as T-Mobile UK, this provider does not have the 9900 yet.  Can you explain what provider this 9900 is from so I can better assist in getting that bundle of software

  • Problem with Blackberry Desktop Software 4.3 Installation

    Hi - I downloaded the Blackberry Desktop Software 4.3.   The exec is called:  430_b025_english.exe
     When I run the exec I receive an error:  
     ERROR 1327.Invalid Drive E:\
    However I have no Drive E attached.  
    What should I do?  Please help and thank you in advance.

    Yes you would choose the bottom option (either blackberry internet service, or setting p a personal email account). You can still use the software to sync with an email clinet on your computer.

  • Blackberry Bold 9900 would not sync with Desktop Software for MAC

    When connecting my Bold 9900 to my MAC the Desktop Software opens correctly, phone is recognised and connected but the SYNC option is not available. I cannot click the Green sync button nor click the relevant sync button under the device tab.
    All answers would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Dimitris

    Hi dimitrisuk,
    Welcome to the support community!
    Can you please verify that your synchronization settings have already been configured? This article should provide more information. "Unable to configure sync or click the sync icon due to the icons being greyed out in BlackBerry Desktop Software for Mac" KB26367
    This link to the user guide provides the steps to verify that your synchronization settings have been configured. http://blck.by/14BZb5q
    Let me know if that helps.

  • Desktop Software for MAC allows only two way sync

    hi...
    I want help with the Blackberry desktop software for MAc. I am able to synce my phone, however there is no way in which I can do a one-way sync  - replacing all the data on the mac with the data of the phone...
    please let me kniw if there is any way of doing that
    thanks

    Isn't it simply because of the known problem with iCloud sync enabled?
    This operation makes the address book and calendar(s) invisible to BBDM as the data files are "removed" from the Mac and put "in the cloud"...
    Several posts are documenting the problem and suggest some alternatives or work around (by disabling iCloud).
    Look on the forum for additional details.
    Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-)

  • BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac won't remember my sync preferences

    Each time I close BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac I and reopen it, I have to set all of my preferences for syncing my Calendar and Contacts again.  The software remembers my selections as long as I don't quit the application, but once I quit it and reopen it they are gone.
    I have tried deleting the plist files, uninstalling and reinstalling the software, but nothing fixes this issue.
    This is happening on both of my MacBook Pros and with both of my BlackBerry devices.
    Both MacBook Pros are running 10.6.1 and I have a BlackBerry Tour running 4.7.1.40 and a BlackBerry Curve 8330m running 4.5.0.138.

    despite posts to the contrary there is a big compatibility problem with Apple LION and Blackberry Desktop manager.
    BB are pretending that the problemdoes not exist, but just look over all the boards here and elsewhere.
    Come on BLACKBERRY - sort it out
    YOUR SHARE PRICE AND SALES DATA ARE TELLING YOU THAT CUSTOMERS ARE VOTING WITH THEIR FEET. I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE BB AS I USE THEM FOR MY BUSINESS.
    GET ON TOP OF THE ISSUE - PLEASE

  • I can't sync my contacts to my mac (BB 9900, OSX Lion, Latest desktop software for mac installed)

    Hi, I have a new blackberry bold 9900, the latest operating system for Apple (OSX Lion), the latest update on my desktop software and the latest update on my BB. However, I am only able to sync 37 of my contacts to Address Book on my mac, and I want to sync all 250+. I am not sure why this is.
    Also for some reason, my new contacts are being saved to my googlemail contact list, although i have never specified this. Is there a way to stop this, and is there a way to change the contacts that are already saved on my googlemail list to my Desktop list?
    thank you for your help in advance....

    Hey All,
    DBJohnson - The Forget Device option removes all the synchronization history that is associated with that BlackBerry so if there was a corruption in the synchronization folder it would be cleared and fixed.
    rubenmarcano - How many contacts are setup on the Mac Address Book?  Do you 2 different Address Books on the BlackBerry?  To find this information, go into Contacts on the BlackBerry and press the menu key and select Options and it will list 2 Contact lists.  IF there is 2, that can cause the problem since BlackBerry Desktop Software will only synchronize with 1 contact list.  I look forward to your reply.
    Joycetz - Did you sync not work from BlackBerry to Mac or vice versa?  Also are you using Outlook or Mac Address Book or Entourage?

  • Using Desktop Software for Mac with an 8703e - Can it be done?

    I downloaded the new BB desktop software for Mac but it doesn't seem to work with my 8703e device.  And since I had to erase the PocketMac software to install the new BB software, I now have no way to synch my Mac and BB.  Can anyone shed any light on this?

    You might check out the FileBrowser app on iTunes. I haven't used it, but it sounds like what you're after. When you say you can't use the Sierra iG2 with your iPad, I'm assuming you mean you can't plug it into the iPad. If it's plugged into a laptop and offering a WiFi hotspot, the iPad should be good with that. I use the Apple Camera Connection Kit to carry extra movies on an SD card. It uploads only to the Photos app, so no books, etc.
